Street Pokemon Zombie Heart!

I've been awfully slack with my blogging of late, mainly due to working on 3 posts at once :/ One I have had to admit will take much more work (as do most of my creative writings), another just needs another delivery from the postman and the third (the most exciting!) 'was' awaiting the postman, but is now back in full swing to be posted soon - eeeep!

But in the mean time, I thought I'd share some fab things I stumbled across whilst traversing the web. First up is this fantastic set of nail art depicting characters from Street fighter 2.....

I may be wrong, but these look ace! Why is it not reasonable for manfolk to get epic nail art? Although for me personally, I would never go down the Street fighter root. I was more of a Darkstalkers fan, mmm Morrigan, until I was introduced to Mavel Vs Capcom 2! What a game, My Captain America and Venom tag team were unbeatable! (only in my mind, in reality I was beaten countlessly)

Next up was someones Redhead Evolution, Pokemon style. Apart from Pokemon Stadium (N64) the only Pokemon games I played involved lots of cards and glass beads. Yet whilst I never collected many fire cards; I was more of a water and leaf boy. I'm a huge fan of Castle, True Blood & Christina Hendricks... I mean Mad Men - although she was also pretty ace in Firefly & Life ;)

Thirdly, via Geekologie I saw this advert for genuine Zombie ammo! Yep Nebraska based ammunitions company Hornady, have specially designed bullets to take down (for a final time) the armies of the undead... "just in case". This is no joke, despite the comic like box art, they take their ammunition very seriously...

Disclaimer: Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is NOT a toy (IT IS LIVE AMMUNITION), but is intended only to be used on…ZOMBIES, also known as the living dead, undead, etc. No human being, plant, animal, vegetable or mineral should ever be shot with Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition. Again, we repeat, Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is for use on ZOMBIES ONLY, and that's not a nickname, phrase or cute way of referring to anybody, place or thing. When we say Zombies, we mean…ZOMBIES!

Lastly whilst following the tweets of @VictorianLondon (great blog here) I saw this wonderfulmap created by D. W. Kellogg circa 1833–1842. Whilst not too complimentary, it does give an insight as to how women were viewed by certain society members during this time period.

Yet for me for most fascinating aspect of it, was it's design. So much forethought in it's layout and an admiration of the fine details made with tools long laid to rest. Wonderful :)

As mentioned, exciting things are happening in my vacuous cranium. I shall post all very soon!

Okay, now that I've confirmed Molly Quinn is 18 as of October 8, I can second Indigo's sentiments toward redheads. Though, if I had to put them in ranking order, Deborah would be first, then Molly, and then Christina, despite her Firefly ties.
